An easy way that works here (and for the tests output) is using str:
>>> a = 2./3
>>> a
0.66666666666666663
>>> print a
0.666666666667
>>> round(a,3)
0.66700000000000004
>>> print round(a,3)
0.667
>>> s = str(round(a,3))
>>> s
'0.667'
>>> print s
0.667

So we can use str(round(value, PRECISION)) for output to files.

No, it's not much different from what is there, but we can do better, keep
them smaller using 'exec' where possible.  They serve as early reference,
though.

That script would be called with -P.  And it should also be able to create a
.blend file with the tests loaded.  The tests can work in many ways if we
take care: individually loaded as texts, with -P for each one, with -P for
one that loads the others, with a way to save them all in a single .blend.
